Write an expression that represents the height of a tree that began at 6 feet and increas 2 feet per year. Let $y$ represent the number of years.
$+\quad y$
Therefore, the expression that represents the height of the tree in terms of the number of years, y, is \(6 + 2y\).
Step 1 :The initial height of the tree is 6 feet.
Step 2 :For each year, the height of the tree increases by 2 feet.
Step 3 :Therefore, the expression that represents the height of the tree in terms of the number of years, y, is \(6 + 2y\).
